Villas and townhouses in island-named clusters
A community of villas and townhouses on sale since its launch on 19 November 2024, which the Land Department files under Al Yelayiss 1 as two projects of a phase called The Tropics.
The register's zone is Al Yelayiss 1. Dubailand is the name DAMAC uses and the name a buyer will recognise, but any comparison you want to make against the Land Department's own transaction data has to be made on Al Yelayiss, or the query comes back empty.
DAMAC's own blog places this community at Dubai Islands and describes access to the sea. Dubai Islands is a different district on the coast. The mistake is in the developer's material, and a beach or sea access promised for this community has no source.

DAMAC's figure for the whole community, from its page and from the launch release of 20 November 2024.

Maldives, Bora Bora, Seychelles, Hawaii, Bali and Fiji, as the launch release names them.

Converted by us from the figure in square feet DAMAC publishes.
- Registered, first phase2DLD
Both active in the Land Department's register, in the Al Yelayiss 1 zone. The register calls the first phase The Tropics; the island names are marketing, and no automatic match by name will join the two.
- Registered, DAMAC Islands 210DLD
A separate second phase under a different legal entity. It is not the community on this page, and the two are easy to confuse in a search.
Prices
A published starting price and payment plan
DAMAC publishes a starting price and a payment plan, each dated, and registered villa sales in two DAMAC Islands 2 clusters show what buyers paid this year.
One warning about any price you have already seen. Checked on 12 September 2026, DAMAC's cards printed the identical number under a dollar, a euro and a pound sign, and the number is in dirhams. Every conversion shown on this site is ours, made from the dirham.
Name a format and we send what is actually asked for it today, with the date and the source of each figure, and the payment schedule as the developer states it.
- FromAED 2.75MDAMAC
DAMAC's own starting price, read on 12 September 2026 and marked by DAMAC as subject to availability. It is in dirhams: on the same day the same figure appeared on its cards under a dollar, a euro and a pound sign.

New launches
The clusters, and a launch-day sales record
Phase 1 of the community holds a Guinness World Records title for the highest revenue generated by a real estate launch in 24 hours, AED 10.23bnDAMAC; DAMAC's claim that its second phase later passed that figure is the company's own comparison, not a second title.
